[@LunarisDaFox]Ah! So like the aliens from Crysis? I've always liked the Ceph as an alien race.

[@Nawmaing]I mean, the modern US military already protects most of their equipment against EMP attacks with Farady cages and metal shielding... You're telling me that in the 4000 years that passed after that, we never perfected the technology? Granted, if we were going down that road, I doubt we'd send in soldiers of flesh (well partially in some cases) and blood, when we probably have drones that can do the exact same job, probably even better. So yeah, I'm okay with EMP attacks being dangerous.

Also, good point about the armor plating. I kinda went by the specifics of the M1 Abrams, but I guess 900mm is a little too thick (also, submarines dont need a lot of armor since technically speaking, they should never, ever get hit). I dropped it down to roughly half that, 400mm, which would be around 16 inches of freedom units, situated around the pilot.
